A Severely Calcified, Undilatable, Coronary Artery Stenosis: Impact of Serial Lithotripsy on Calcium Fracture and Lumen Expansion.
JACC Case Rep
January 2025
Division of Cardiovascular Disease, University of Alabama and Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Birmingham, Alabama, USA.
Percutaneous coronary intervention of a severely calcified coronary artery stenosis is associated with stent underexpansion and adverse outcomes. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a novel technology for fracturing calcified plaque in the coronary artery. We describe the first case of a severely calcified, undilatable coronary artery lesion.

Eur Heart J Case Rep

Department of Radiological and Hematological Sciences, Section of Radiology, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Largo Agostino Gemelli 8 - 00168 Rome, Italy.
Background: Cardiac strangulation (CS) from epicardial pacing leads (EPLs) is a rare and potentially lethal mechanical complication associated with epicardial pacemaker (PM) implantation.
Case Summary: We report a case of a 44-year-old-female patient presenting with chest and left shoulder pain in the absence of reported trauma with history of congenital atrioventricular block treated with epicardial PM implantation during the childhood and subsequent transvenous reimplantation over the years. Troponin I resulted within normal values and ECG, transthoracic echocardiography and chest X-ray documented no acute cardiopulmonary findings.
Clinical and radiological characteristics of calcified cerebral embolism: a large case series including 242 calcified cerebral embolism.
Acta Neurol Belg
January 2025
Department of Neurology, CHU Nîmes, Hôpital Carémeau, Univ. Montpellier, Rue du Pr Debré, Nîmes, 30900, France.
Introduction: Radiological calcified cerebral embolism (CCE) characteristics have been reported in small case series. Our aim was to describe clinical and radiological CCE characteristics in a large number of CCE and to compare characteristics between different patient groups.
Methods: Characteristics of 79 stroke patients with CCE were analyzed retrospectively.
Simple and safe redo sternotomy technique using the ultrasonic bone scalpel for patients with an embedded calcified conduit.

Hibino Laboratory, University of Chicago Medicine, Chicago, IL, USA.
With the increase of patients with adult congenital heart disease, the number of high-risk multiple redo sternotomies is increasing. Calcified conduit embedded in the sternum or large vessels attached to the sternum presents an especially challenging case. This video tutorial presents a simple safe redo sternotomy technique using an ultrasonic bone scalpel in such high-risk patients.

Animal growth is a fundamental component of population dynamics, which is closely tied to mortality, fecundity, and maturation. As a result, estimating growth often serves as the basis of population assessments. In fish, analysing growth typically involves fitting a growth model to age-at-length data derived from counting growth rings in calcified structures.
